   Trying hard to find a friend
   That I can count on
   There's nothing left to show
   Plant our love and let it grow

Chorus.

Bridge. G D Em Bm F#   > 2x

   The rest is up to you
   Plant your love and let it grow

Bm                 F#7       D                  E
Standin' at the crossroads, tryin' to read the signs

G            A                Bm              F#7
To tell me which way I should go to find the answer

     D              E
And all the time I know,

G            A              B
Plant your love and let it grow.

B
Let it grow, let it grow,

E       B               A
Let it blossom, let it flow,

B
In the sun, the rain, the snow,

E       B       A
Love is lovely,

A       F#7
let it grow.
 
 

This is the basic structure for the verses and chorus.  For the
instrumental part with the dobro solo, the chords go:  G, D/F#, Em, Bm, A,
G, Em, Bm, F#, Bm, F#7, D/A, E/G#, G, A.

This part is sort of difficult to learn, but if you listen to the song it
should become clear eventually.

Hope this helps.
